    Remind me again how long we have had powered flight? Pretty sure it’s just over a century. Not sure if plural fits here.

        If you’ve known something for 11 years, would you say you’ve known it for 2 decades?

        Check, mate.

      the first powered blimp was built in the 1850s so it’s only 26 years away from being a 200 year old technology, first hot air balloon flight was 250ish years ago though and as long as someone couldn’t tell what it was then that’s technically a UFO from over 200 years ago.
